Publisher Description
Becoming a Barbarian won't teach you how to swing a battle axe or crush your enemies (so that you can see them driven before you and then hear the lamentation of their women).
Becoming a Barbarian is a follow-up to Donovan's cult hit, The Way of Men. Good, modern, civilized Western men today are expected to think like "citizens of the world" - obligated to everyone and no one. Natural, meaningful tribal connections have been substituted with synthetic, disposable consumer identities. Without a sense of who they are and what group they have a place in, modern men are becoming increasingly detached, disoriented, vulnerable, and ever more easily manipulated.
Becoming a Barbarian attacks the emasculated emptiness of life in the modern West and shows men how to think tribally again. It reveals the weaknesses of universalistic thinking, and challenges listeners to become the kind of men who could go all-in and devote their lives to one group of people above all others.
Becoming a Barbarian is about finding a tribe, finding a purpose, and choosing to live the kind of life that undermines the narrative of the Empire.
Customer Reviews
Becoming a Barbarian audio book by Jack Donovan
This version is worth the price just for the chapter and quote readings alone. Even more so than TWOM, this book comes alive in the audio version. The passion of the author for the subject is evident and adds greatly to the audio presentation of the subject matter. This book delves into the mental outlook of those living in, yet apart mentally and spiritually from the Empire of Nothing. Men of any ethnicity or nationality will be able to take Donovan's ideas and apply them to their lives and culture or the culture they want to create. Perfect for work commutes or better yet, drives into a wilderness adventure with your crew.
Pfft
Sounds like borderline Nazi men's right activist garbage to me.
